10/18

What science ideas did you learn?
-normal line
-the eye flips an image like the flame on the wall,they both pass through such a small hole that the image flips
-different density to different materials changes the way light refracts
-when light enters a prism it doesn't reflect and refract only once it does it a lot times

How did you learn these ideas?
-by going around to stations and trying different experiments
-discussing in class

Why is it important to know this idea (What real world application is there)?
-it is important to know these ideas because we can use it to explain other science ideas
-a real world appplication is that we can use the info we learned in class to apply it to when there is a straw in a cup the light refracts off the straw and in turn the straw looks bent from refraction
